Well A slight delay in the SV payoff was caused by my dumb actions over the weekend.
I was in Maryland over the weekend at a friends house when we were heading out early in the morning to get some work done. I was backing out of his yard onto the driveway at an angle which there was a monsterous boat behind me that my buddy is fixing the fiberglass and floor on a customers boat.
I knew I was clear of the boat which I was looking over my right shoulder as I am backing up. Next thing I know I smashed into something! :cursin: I had no clue :wtf: I hit! I am scared to look! Well I get out and see the boat :scratch: ok I am clear of it.... :damn: I hit the trailor up by the hitch :cursin: and this is no little light duty boat trailor this thing is thick heavy duty!
We pulled the bumper out a little just enough for me to be able to put the tail gate down. Then I took the pics...but you can see how far the bumper went in and torqued.
I was going to work on getting the apperence project going on the truck next year, but not this soon...well looks like I have already started. First thing Monday morning I ordered a roll pan by Xenon.
I am going to get the dent out of the bed, then eventually I will get the side skirt kit which will cover that dent in the bed...it will be fixed but just the point being there will be some body filler right there.
I always hated that factory bumper :lol:
I'll have to post more pics once I get the roll pan installed. Then the side skirts, then the front airdam..I need to decide which kit I want to go with...so many options....
Here's the pics of the first accident of my truck..Enjoy...

It's just a new truck and I can't stand to drive it like this. I already ordered the roll pan, so that should be here Wednesday. I guess it's really not holding me back too bad for paying off the bike. The roll pan was only $139.00 and shipping was $29.00. So $170.00 really isn't too bad. I already have the yellow paint and I'm sure my buddy will fix the dent and paint it for free. He's always took care of me before, and I've always took care of his electronic stuff...swaping trades works out well.
Oh well I get my firebird up here tomorrow so I will start driving that for a while once again.

serves you right for owning a chevy :crazy:
:bash: It's a [email protected] good truck and I've had no problems with it. Yet its only a 2004 and I've put 24,600 miles on it so far. We'll see how it holds up. My firebird has 240,000 miles all original engine and it runs like a tank..again no problems at all.

Sucks, SV. Thats a nice truck. That SS would look better with a roll pan anyway. It wont help if you do it again but would look better till then. :wink: Or if you want to be trailer fabolous, weld up some 6" pipe and bolt that up! YEEEHAW!

Sorry to hear bout the truck man. But as you prove with the Firebird...vehicles will last forever if you take care of them... :luck:

Why don't you park it at the cinema multiplex, go see a movie and then call in insurance company when you come out and find your truck hit... :wink:
I believe some people call this 'insurance fraud', with that said, only the most discerning professionals engage in this method of 'fixing' their rides... :leaving:

You know, my Grandpa told me about people like you...he always said, "if you can't say something nice about someone...come sit by me!" :dthumb:

I think we need more elaboration here...I know this van into the lake story just wants to come out!!!

I will let him elaborate on the stories, oh and by the way I forgot about the blazer that he went mudding in. That didn't turn out good either. Maybe Livingston is just a bad place for that guy. Because 3 accidents have happened up there.
